Favorite Current-Gen 911

Year's_End · 01-11-2011, 10:40 PM

Not factoring the base Carrera/4/Targa/Turbo simply because they have S versions. The 'regular' GT2 has been left out of the 997.2 model update, so I removed it from the list. You never realize how many 911 variants there are until you're typing a list out. Damn son.

1. Carrera S (including cab)

2. Carrera 4S (including cab)

3. Targa 4S

4. Carrera GTS (including cab) *If you don't know about it, picture the model that would fit between the S and GT3.

5. Turbo/Turbo S (including cab)

6. GT3

7. GT3 RS

8. GT2 RS

9. Sport Classic

10. Speedster

Multiple votes are allowed, so I figured it'd be easier to post your favorite model instead.

Mine would be the GT3, followed closely by the GTS.

GT2 RS all day for me. Looks, balance, and poise of GT3 and power of Turbo and you have a winner.

GT3 RS. It's the last of a dying breed (high-revving NA engine, 6MT exclusive) and it's perfect, to make a long story short. I just wish you had color options for PCCB.

What about the normal GT2?

Turbo S PDK is an oxymoron - there's no 6MT option.

Redundant then, not an oxymoron

GT3 RS

No substitute for the GT3 RS. It is the ultimate 911. End of story

For some reason or another Porsche didn't decide to bring the GT2 into the current generation of 997s. Check their website; they got rid of it. I made this thread for the 997.2 gen.

This is a prime example of what happens when you mix adderall and vicoden - I become a real smartass and go out of my way to correct people... but fail in epic fashion in my execution.

Epik · 01-12-2011, 06:19 AM

I like the GT3 RS. Rest are meh. Porsche is utterly boring imo but their business guys are doing a good job.

335iMIAMI · 01-12-2011, 07:45 AM

GT3 rs favorite p-car by far. Will have one in my garage by the time I'm 30. Would not mind a turbo cab though either , I like them all.

NYC6 · 01-12-2011, 08:16 AM

. GT2

mtla4 · 01-12-2011, 08:42 AM

GT3 RS the rest well they look good at the valet. Especially the cab(I find them girly, and the c2,c4 that are so beige) I'd take the GT3 RS or else it's a Cayman S...other then that I dont know

OBI_agent · 01-12-2011, 09:21 AM

911 turbo S for me please

epbrown · 01-12-2011, 09:44 AM

The only current 911 I'd ever get is the GT3 (non-RS), and there's a slew of other Porsches I'd get before I bought one of those.

yermo · 01-12-2011, 12:44 PM

GT2 RS
GT3 RS

BrokenVert · 01-12-2011, 12:47 PM

There is a GT3 RS Cabrio!?

MikeyV · 01-12-2011, 01:03 PM

Is there such a thing as too many 911 choices
